I imported mine myself directly from Colombia; the three that survived the first few weeks are still alive and doing excellent. I still have two, and the third has since changed hands to another MFK member. Still by far my favourite rays, and I'll hopefully be bringing in some more in the next month or so. I had no DOA either; it was just getting the rays to eat that seemed to be the largest problem with those who lost them (I was lucky and the two that I kept both survived).

That's real cool man! :)

waiting for Kamisan to jump in.. he just imported 20pcs flower direct from colombia.. ..no DOA.. and now still in Q tank....looks healthy only one or two on the skinny side. these will then join his tigers 12 of them in his pond.. hehe
Correction on the numbers Bro, ordered 20 pcs but only managed to get 15 pcs Shroederi and one piece Dumerilli (wrongly identified as Shroederi). Maybe because of my specification (14 - 16 cm only) had caused some difficulties for them to fulfill the numbers.
Generally I'm satisfied with the rays' size, health and the way they were individually packed (4 bags in a box) but for that Dumerilli... haizz

Next morning (day 1), some of them start taking chopped earthworms / live shrimps. On day 2 - 4, I just leave some live shrimps and small guppies for them. Today (day 5) I threw some Milli Worms (MW) and all of them rushed for it.

I'm a happy man.
